I don't really know, I guess they are low cal, low fat, and high fiber that it does not measure on the point slide scale

Re: What foods are zero points on WW??
Usually it's because the amount of fiber is high, compared to the amount of calories or fat grams. The other reason could be that they are just very low in calories that they are insignificant in small amounts (like certain condiments)
But....if you eat large amounts of certain zero point foods, you should probably assign them 1 pt. For example, if I eat more than a cup of raw carrots, I take a point for them. Just because something has zero points, it doesn't mean you can eat a huge amount of it, and not count it. It will add up after a while.
